I would highly recommend Haka tours to anyone who wants to maximize their time in New Zealand. Haka is streamlined and efficient, allowing you to really enjoy your trip without worrying about logistics.
My guide Willow was one of a kind- brilliant at her job and a joy to be around. She is so know...
Haka Tours provides an incredible, unique tour experience. As a beginning skier, I greatly appreciated how organised the tour was. I didn't have to worry about the gear or any of the logistics. Haka took care of everything so that I could focus on enjoying the skiing, scenery and people!
I was on the trip with Willow in late NZ summer - she was amazing and sincere. The trip itself was not only incredibly affordable for the experience it was amazing on so many other levels. Willow was incredible, to be on a trip with a guide who could be present with the group everyday and also tak...
Haka tours is an absolutely amazing experience. It is one of the only companies in NZ with a small size tour (max 16 people). Andy was my tour guide and he was so positive, fun, and adventurous. He made sure that every person on tour had an amazing experience that was in line with their individual g...
Sam was my tour guide for the 7 day South Island Lick tour and he was great. He's very accommodating to your requests and also very knowledgeable about many different facets of New Zealand. The tour itself was fantastic and the people in my tour group also elevated the experience.
I did the Bay of Island 3 day's tour. Tyrone was our guide. I am writing this feedback because I feel there is lots of to improve. I think he just must get more experiences in this field. There was lack of information given about day program,accommodation...etc..
Our group was nice bunch of people ...
Seven day lick tour was amazing and the surprise stops between destinations added an extra level of fun and interest! The whole tour was hassle free and a lot of fun.
Willow was a fantastic guide - I felt very safe and comfortable in her clearly capable hands.
Did the 7 day South Island Lick tour and had a great time. Will return in the future to do a North Island tour
Amazing 24 day Epic NZ tour, best trip of my life! The small group definitely made the trip, and visiting lots of different places off the beaten track made the trip one I'll never forget. Thanks Burto for an awesome time, will be back for sure!
Hygi and Hakatours did a fabulous job of showing me the South Island. The tour was well organized, Hygi was a great guide, my fellow travelers were amazing and overall couldn't have asked for a better experience. Highly recommend traveling with HakaTours!
Great way to see New Zealand! Had and awesome guide (Sam) and a fun crew for our trip. Highly recommend this!
Lovely tour with nice activities and some really fun people. No worries, just book their tour, sit back and enjoy the best of New Zealand. I took their 16 day tour of North and South island in New Zealand and I had a lot of fun with viewing some amazing landscape throughout the whole country and exp...
You can't go wrong choosing Haka Tours to introduce you to New Zealand (or show you things you've never seen, if you've been there before). Well organized from the first click on their website months before the tour until the last moment I spent in their company. Fun and friendly staffers both at ...
Excellent 7 day tour of South Island with the lovely guide 'Willow' in October 2016. Great value for the 7 days (about $1,800 I think) which covered all activities, accommodation & breakfast. Our guide ('Willow') was not only a local Kiwi who could give us the background story on all the places we v...
Really great first-time experience of New Zealand on Haka's 16 day 'Amplified NZ' tour. Saw many of the highlights of both islands, with all the benefits of travelling with a fun group without having too many (think the buses can only take up to 16). Our guide/driver/chef Daz was brilliant: always e...
Haka is a more than an organized and well operated Tour group appealing to a mid market between the traditional backpacker and more mature traveller. Affordable compared to the more premium full service 4/5 star Hotel tours but likely considered expensive in the backpacking realm.
With that in min...
BEST TOUR COMPANY EVER! Andy & the team were brilliant. Hope to see you all again in the future.
Extremely organized and well planned. Our guide Ruth, knew her way around our itinerary and went above and beyond to make our experience unforgettable. Group size was perfect, close-knit and not crowded. Pacing was nice, whether you re an early bird or like to rest more. One thing to note would be, ...
A wonderful, life changing experience, an amazing adventure and a chance to challenge one's self and explore a beautiful country. Thank you Haka and Andy our guide , I'm never going to forget the very special 25 days I spent in NZ.
Loved the tour. we saw beautiful places, snow was awesome. Our tour guide, Daz was so much fun and a pleasure to be with, he's a real kiwi :). everything was so interesting. Had a great time!
Absolutely loved my Haka Tour, 10/10 would recommend to anyone. I went on the 7 day north adventure tour, and thoroughly enjoyed all of the locations and activities planned. Our guide, Jackson, was very knowledgeable, and the group was a ton of fun. Truly something to enjoy for everyone of all ages...
Excellent tour, no regrets whatsoever. Our guide Burto was extremely well-versed with the ins and outs of all the activities and extremely accommodating in scheduling and rescheduling tour activities. He also gave good recommendations on what activities to do according to everyone's interests and fi...
The tour was great! Our guide Burto is very helpful, knows every place! I will definitely use Haka Tours again the next time I come to NEw Zealand.
NZ is just as beautiful as I expected, but Haka tour exceeded my expectation. Did south island this time, I'll definitely come back to do 7-day north island tour next year! Hope I can be on Andy's (baby jesus) tour again!
Amazing tour with a really great tour guide. Great value for money and great experience on the tour
We ( group of 3) joined the 7 day North Island Adventure Tour. Best decision ever! Haka tours is awesome. From pre tour, we had awesome tour advisors like Steph Smith, Nic Ross and Carl Eckersley guiding and advising us about the tour. On tour, we had an amazing guide, Burto. It was never a dull mom...
I had the absolute time of my life on the 16 Day Amplified Tour. I went to New Zealand with pretty high expectations for the country, my adventure, and Haka Tours. Well my expectations were not only met, but BLOWN AWAY. This was my first time out of the US and I figured I'd go big. I spent Christmas...
What an amazing experience with Haka! I did the Bay of Islands tour earlier this month and had an absolutely phenomenal time. I saw Orcas for the first time, swam with the dolphins, ate fish and chips on one of NZ most gorgeous beaches while the sun set, chatting with new friends from all over the g...
The tour was awesome. All 3 guides we're not only extremely knowledgable about the different locations we visited, but also great people to be around. With out a doubt would recommend this tour group to someone who is looking to travel to NZ
Absolutely amazing company with exceptional staff who are all willing to go above and beyond in all aspects. The tour itself was brilliant and the guides knowledge was excellent. Never a dull moment and I'd do another tour with them in a heart beat. Thanks Haka Tours :)
My husband and I did the 7 day North Island tour with our guide, Ollie. It was fantastic and the best possible beginning of our 5 1/2 week trip to New Zealand and Tasmania. Ollie went above and beyond to make sure that we saw and did as much as our days would allow while still giving us appropria...
Our tour guide Katie was absolutely delightful!! Me and a few friends went on the 16 day amplified tour of both islands, and by the end, we were so sad to leave not only New Zealand but also Katie because she'd proven to be such a caring person and knowledgeable guide. It definitely added to the exp...
Best tour group ever! They do all the hard stuff for you (such as booking all the fun activities you want to do) and do everything to give you the experience of a lifetime!
I did a 24 day tour in September and have to say it was the best trip I have ever gone on. We had an amazing tour guide, Andy aka Baby Jesus, and 3 other guides in training. Everyone was so kind, helpful, intelligent and fun. There is no doubt New Zealand is one of the most beautiful countries out t...
I am going to start by saying it wasn't all bad and the weather had to do with some of our disappointments on the tour it's mother nature and you can't control it.
Aside from that I also poste this review on TripAdvisor and they didn't post it! They posted all my other review I have ever written ...
Hi, I am a 62 year old female, (outdoorsy type), used to doing things on my own but knew there was no way I could cover most of the country by arranging things myself. I just returned from the 24 Day Epic tour and it was the best. We had a small fun group that made it really personal. Josh was a gre...
Travel with young children. Me and my family having a great and wonderful holiday in New Zealand. Thanks to Haka Tours. Especially to Robyn with so much patient on my issue and the itineary. And also our tour guide Annie. If next time when i travel to New Zealand ,I would surely look for them....:)
I did 24 days through the North and South Islands with Haka. Amazing company with a personal touch. One of the best trips I've ever been on (and I've been on a lot)
Perfect tour in New Zealand !
Better than what i had imagine before coming !
Thanks to all the members and Daz who did a really good job !

Is Andy (Baby Jesus) the best tour guide ever? Based on my 24 day tour, probably. A brilliant tour with a relaxed, organised and fun guide made this an unforgettable experience.
Haka Tours and New Zealand changed my life! I did the 16-day Amplified (Reverse) Tour and I highly recommend it. You get to see the best of both islands! Katie was our tour guide and she was hands-down the coolest! Made everyone feel super welcome and was just fun to be around! Haka Tours does all t...
MTB Tour: Awesome experience worth its money and time. THe team of Morgan and Damian put together an amazing experience of the North Island MTB scene, dealt very well with the diversity of a mixed group of riders and coped well under pressure on difficult moments. We all appreciated their diligence ...
Andy (aka Baby Jesus) is not only awesome at doing his job, he also does a really great job of making the tour group feel like family, including himself.
Although I am a senior, I totally enjoyed this trip. The tour was well organized and our guide Ollie went above and beyond to ensure everyone was having a great time. I am recommending this tour company to all of my friends and family. (The only thing I would have liked to know in advance was th...
Highly Recommended! Thanks to Haka Tours, I will never forget my trip through New Zealand. I had magical days with great people and a great tour guide. The accommodations are beautiful. Maybe I'll do it again sometime
Tons of fun! The smaller 16 person group was a great size and our Haka Guide was the best (Jenny Jordan)!
The 7 Day South Island Lick tour with guide/driver Sam was brilliant fun. Very much like a road trip with friends, the countryside was stunning to watch and the towns we visited all offered a variety of interesting and fun activities. Sam went above and beyond to make sure everyone was catered for, ...
I did the epic NZ tour with haka tours and it was the best organised trip I've been on! The consultants were really nice and helpful before the trip and the actual trip was a blast. We had a wonderful guide who brought us closer to this amazing country and always helped when we needed him. Also the ...
We had a wonderful experience with Haka Tours. We arranged a private tour for our group of 8 and were extremely pleased with the company and handling of all the details. We would highly recommend Haka Tours for anyone traveling to New Zealand. Robyn Braid was with us every step of the way as we b...
Had an absolutely amazing time on the 16 day Haka Tour! The small group size was fantastic and allowed us to go off the beaten track. Probably the best part of the tour was our guide Burto. He went above and beyond to ensure that everyone was happy and could do the activities they wanted to. His en...
HAKA tours does everything to make your holiday unforgettable! It was a great time on the North Island tour and we explored lots of beautiful locations. Lots of outdoor activities and many free activities to choose from. Great organisation, great atmosphere, even if you travel alone..you wont be alo...
My husband and I are in our 50 s and were a little concerned about taking such an adventurous tour. But Haka is incredible! We loved every minute. There was more than enough to keep us occupied, and never felt as though we couldn t keep up. This was the best tour I ve ever been on!
Everything right from booking through to the end was just perfect!
Chris was a fantastic tour manager !!!! He made the trip so much better :)
Baby Jesus (Andy) provided a life changing and unforgettable experienced. 100% would recommend.
Absolutely fabulous North Island Haka tour with guide Katie. Locations and activities chosen were ideal and the group a perfect size of 14. Some of the accommodation could have been a little better (for the amount paid for the tour) but otherwise a fantastic experience. Katie was a superb guide with...
Had an incredible experience doing the southern island 'lick' tour! Burto was an exceptional guide who was both a ton of fun and incredibly knowledgeable!
great tour of the bay, lovely place
lovely guides my children enjoyed themselves
Fantastic organisation, best tour operators for a trip around New Zealand!
If you wanna go crazey and be high on adrenalin, well NZ is the perfect spot. Mindblowing and breathtaking scenic views, amazing and kind people and a travel company to never forget. #hakatours - a big thanks for a epic, fun and amazing road trip with the best crew ever. And a big thanks to Daz, our...
Best tour I've ever been on. The South Island was fantastic and Burto was a legendary guide. I laughed harder than I have in months and learned so much about New Zealand. Can't wait to go back again someday - hopefully, sooner rather than later. Don't hesitate - go with Haka Tours!
Haka tours south lick adventure. Had a fantastic time with Haka tours. Willow is a great guide! Would highly recommend this tour.
Fantastic tour, very well organised and structured to see and do as much as possible! We also had a great tour guide who was very informative and helpful
